HiI've read in several places that while preparing for bankruptcy I should hold enough cash back to cover me while bankruptcy goes through . At the same time I feel this could be against the rules is there a suggested amount that I am allowed to withdraw and keep to tide me overHope I've put this in right place mant thanksDave

You should just keep enough for the essentials such as energy bills, rent, food etc. You also need the fees as well.

you have to take care with building up too much cash as it could be seen as an asset and siezed. If you can show you need some funds for living expenses this should be allowed but it depends on what sort of sums you are talking about.

Effectively if you are making the decision to go Bankrupt you need to stop paying creditors and start the application process.
